All of my cards are numbered so I can keep track of how many cards I've made along with the month and year I made them.
The layout designs that I use on my cards are provided from the design team at Freshly Made Sketches and Mojo Monday card challenges. The color schemes on some of my cards are compliments of the Color Throwdown card challenge. I owe my thanks to them for the use of these challenges.
Thank you for stopping by.

You're so sweet

#609-2019-03.
This is my first time making a 5x7" card. I'm used to making the usual 4.25x5.5" cards. It doesn't look the way I was hoping it would, but I am posting my card on here anyway.
I used copic markers to color the pieces after stamping them and cutting them out. I adhered them to the card with double sided sticky circles.
Thanks for stopping by.

The layout design for this card is from this week's Mojo Monday.
It's the Mojo Sketch 511.
I didn't realize that the name of the blog was changed to Poetic Artistry, so it's been a long time since I've posted a card on this challenge. 
With that being said, let me tell you about my card...
I chose a forest green for my card base.
For my card front, I chose a Sahara Sand cardstock, which is embossed with a dots embossing folder. 
Then I used a Slate blue which is embossed with a rose bouquet embossing folder. I gave it a chocolate brown border.
I also used chocolate brown for the scalloped circle framelit die. The white circle is a stitched circle framelit die. And the pine trees are framelit dies.
The sentiment is a wood mount stamp and is stamped with black ink.
I added the pearls to give it an added look.
Thanks for stopping by.

Happily Ever After

#607-2019-03.
My hubby thought it would look good to have 2 trees on both sides, so I gave it a try, and here is how it turned out!
I used the same pine tree die cuts that I used on my last card.
The card stock I used is from an earth tone card stock pack, which I have embossed with a dots and modern wallpaper embossing folders.
For the wedding couple, I used Marina Mist stamping up ink to stamp them onto white paper and then I cut them out, put a double sided sticky dot on the back, and adhered it to the card front.
Below the wedding couple, I added a piece of lace ribbon and pearls to make it look like the wedding couple are standing on a platform.
The sentiment is a sticker that I got out of a wedding card stock matstack.
I guess you could also call this card A Woodland Wedding instead of just Happily Ever After!!
I hope you have enjoyed your visit.
Thanks for stopping by!

Mr & Mrs

#605-2019-03.
My step-son is getting married in August and he and his fiance have decided to have earth tone colors for their wedding. So, I made this earth tone wedding card. 
I used a dots embossing folder and a damask 2 embossing folder, along with flower heart die cuts, scalloped circle framelit, circle framelit, ribbon, pearls, and a butterfly.
The sentiment is from Hero Arts stamp and cut Yes.
Thanks for stopping by.

I kinda goofed up a little bit on this card on accident. At first, I was going to use certainly celery on the leaf stamp from the Fabulous Florets stamp set, but then decided it didn't look very good just being stamped onto the card front, so then I decided to cut out 2 of the Flower heart die cut framelits instead.
For the background, I used the dots embossing folder and the damask embossing folder. The flowers are from the Fabulous Florets stamp set. I used Taken with Teal ink to highlight the edges of the card front and the scalloped circle for the sentiment.
